There’s a Power in Belonging to Facebook Groups

There's a power in belonging to Facebook Groups. In the last two months, I’ve upped my involvement in a handful of groups, having terrific experiences as a result. In this blog post, I will share with you some of my experiences in three of these groups. Since all these groups are private Facebook groups, I’m not giving out their exact names. If you want to know more about any of them, please contact me at joyce@boomerssocialmediatutor.com   People Who Want to Step Up Their LinkedIn Presence Do you want to step up your LinkedIn presence?

Make Your LinkedIn Experience Section More Engaging

I challenge you to make your LinkedIn experience section more engaging. Too often this section is simply a rehash of your professional resume. Make it more like a resume on steroids! Keep in mind that you have up to 100 characters for each of your position titles and nearly 2,000 characters for each position description.   Here Are 5 Ways to Make Your LinkedIn Experience Section More Engaging Expand on your current position titles. Typically, people use the exact language of a position title when they would be better served by expanding on it. Add words or phrases that more [...]

Grateful for My Community of Social Media Learners

I’m feeling very grateful for my community of social media learners. The community I’m referring to consists of the members of my Simplify Your Social Media Meetup Group.   Background on My Meetup Group I created this Meetup group to offer people an opportunity to learn about social media in a fun, interactive setting. In fact, this month I’m celebrating the third anniversary of this monthly group! The folks who come to our meetings are a wide range of business people. Some are pretty proficient with their social media. However, most of them struggle from time to time with how [...]

Older Adults – You Can Stay Safe on Facebook While Enjoying Yourself

To my fellow older adults – you can stay safe on Facebook while enjoying yourself! As we approach the holiday season, we are likely to be spending even more time than usual on Facebook. Therefore, this is a good time to focus on the benefits and challenges of being on this social media site. There so many benefits for seniors to be had by being active on Facebook (and other types of social media). For example, Alissa Bauer’s article in the August 3, 2020 issue of Senior Living Blog includes such benefits as: Connecting with family members who live far [...]

Becoming More of a Global Community Through Virtual Events

We’re becoming more of a global community through virtual events that are often accessible to anyone anywhere. Consequently, attendance isn’t limited to those who are within a geographic striking distance. I encourage you to find organizations outside of your geographic area where you can visit virtually. Then, you can use social media to stay in touch with people you meet at these groups. Recently, I did some LinkedIn training at the virtual meetings of two groups that are based in other states. One of the groups normally meets in Midtown Manhattan and the other in the Miami area. Both groups [...]

Creating Articles That Tie to Your Social Media Presentations

By creating articles that tie to your social media presentations, you can promote upcoming talks on social media. Such articles can also be a great way to introduce yourself to niched groups of business people.   Examples of Recent Articles I Wrote In the past few weeks, I’ve had two articles published. “Safe fun for older adults on Facebook,” was published in several newspapers serving readers in small communities near Denver. The other article, “Three Best Practices for Using LinkedIn,” appeared in the Fourth Quarter Issue of The MHEDA Journal. Readers of this journal are members of the Material Handling [...]

Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of My Business

This month I’m celebrating the 10th anniversary of my business, Boomers’ Social Media Tutor. Back in 2010 as I was winding up a 17-year career in sales, I decided to start a new career. Although I didn’t go full-time into my business until March 2013, I created my LLC in October 2010. I remember the challenge of creating the name like it was yesterday. Even though Boomers’ Social Media Tutor is a mouthful, it truly represents what I offer and who I serve.   Taglines and Slogans In reflecting over this decade of being in business, so many thoughts come [...]

Why You Should Have a Company Page on LinkedIn

Have you ever thought about why you should have a company page on LinkedIn? Until recently, I wasn’t convinced of the value of a company page for a single-person business. Over the past year or so, my thinking has changed. Now, I’m proposing that if you are a business owner, you should have a company page. I continue to believe that you as a business owner should optimize your personal profile and keep it updated. Also, it’s important for you to use LinkedIn to stay in touch with your business colleagues. In addition, it helps to build your personal reputation [...]
